In which Sakura tries to figure out if she's been sent to the past-or an alternate universe with suspicious tweaks.
Dying was everything she had expected, an inevitable event, bound to happen sooner rather than later (a lot sooner, actually)-an unstoppable force, driven by the arm of a rabbit goddess piercing through her, and just barely not enough will to survive.
And yet, it was nothing she could've ever prepared for. Not when she found herself four years old again, and a pink-haired stranger roamed her strangely empty house, claiming to be her brother.

"Sakura had one thought, waking up screaming her lungs out.
Shit.
Because she wasn't supposed to be screaming. She wasn't supposed to have a voice at all. And she sure as hell wasn't supposed to know that."

trapped ➳ naruto | ✔️
"Don't make this any harder than it has to be, Sakura." I swallowed hard, my body shaking. I can't believe this is actually happening. Who knew that it will actually end up like this? I knew that I have to save Naruto and Sasuke-kun so that we could run away and hide before it's too late. "I-I'm not opening the door." I took a step backwards, looking at the kitchen. There was a knife on the counter, I needed it. If he is going to break inside, I have to fight back in order to get out of here. I quickly get it and face the door once again. I take a deep breath and tighten the grip on the knife's handle. There was one big question that kept running inside my mind over and over again. When will this nightmare end? Sasuke, Sakura and Naruto suddenly found themselves stuck in their own "ideal world"; a world with no chakra, ninjas, wars and just peace, tranquility and happiness. Their loved ones who were once dead are alive and the place they called home is back to normal again. Everything seems perfect, right? Wrong. They soon find out the person who has trapped them in that world is out to kill them. What's worse is that he won't stop at nothing until they're dead and they don't even have chakra to fight back. Will they be able to escape and be safe? Or will they remain trapped forever? Quote of the story (but not in the actual story): "Just like everybody else, you three believe in everything until it's disproved. You believe in old myths, in ghosts, in powerful creatures, etc. It all exists, even if it's just in your minds. So who's to say that dreams and nightmares aren't as real as you and I?"

Cursed Love (Book 1 of the Cursed Series)
"Shisui!" I had called out in hopes he would answer me. Nothing. Wait, the river! I know how to get to the river from here so I took off running in the direction of said river. I could feel my lungs burning as well as my eyes as liquid, most probably tears, slid down my cheeks. I could see the clearing up ahead where I could see them faintly. I finally passed the final bush only to see Shisui fall backward. "SHISUI/NII!" both Itachi and I yelled at the exact same time as I felt an intense stab in my heart. What is this feeling? Everything was slowing down as Itachi turned to me with wide fearful eyes. Why does it feel so tight? I continue running, but it's like I am not moving at all! It's like a wire is wrapped around my heart. It feels like it is connected to Shisui. Is this what inspired the red string of fate? It sucks! And wrong! He is pulling it. Stop! It hurts, Shisui-nii! It's going to snap! My heart clenches before it thumps so loudly, it echoes in my ears. Thump. Just as I reach him, Itachi snatches me up and won't let go. Thump. It's so tight! AHHHHHHH! IT HURTS! Thump. Thump. Thump. I'm thrashing as hard as I can in Itachi's grasp. "Let me go!" I yell. Thump. "Shisui-nii!" I yell some more. "IT HURTS!" I scream causing Itachi to stiffen. Thump. Thump. Thump. I managed to get free of his grasp, but not even a step further am I tackled to the ground. "NO! STOP! LET ME GO! LET ME GO! SHISUIIIIIIIIII!" Thump. Thump. SNAP! I collapsed as my head hit the ground with a thud. Crying into the ground as Itachi ran his fingers over my hair. It was like I was being torn apart. "Let me go," I whine. "I don't want to be alone." ~~ Disclaimer: I do not own Naruto or any of the characters. If pictures are used, they r not mine, All rights go to their rightful owners. Also, cover is not mine.

What could have been (one shot)
She had wasted years chasing a dream that was never meant to be. Sasuke Uchiha is dead-killed by Naruto in their final battle. Sakura Haruno should hate him for it. She should blame him, curse him, and despise him for breaking his promise. But she can't. Because deep down, in the hollowed-out remains of her heart, she knows the truth: Naruto was never the one who failed her. She was the one who failed him. Once, he had been hers to claim-the one boy who saw her, recognized her, and cherished her without hesitation. But she had turned away, blind to what she had until it was gone. And now, as she watches him in absolute love with another-with the fire, devotion, and tenderness she once craved-Sakura is left to drown in the weight of her mistakes. For once, she reaches out to the only friend she has left. But as the hours pass and the truth becomes unbearable, one question lingers in the cold Konoha air: What does a person do when there's nothing left to hold onto? Tonight, under the quiet glow of Konoha's bright lanterns amongst the cold winds, one last mistake waits to be made. Canon Divergences: Sakura never trained under Tsunade, never reached her full potential, and remained a low-tier kunoichi under Kurenai's genjutsu tutelage. Her obsession with Sasuke only worsened over the years. Naruto, no longer the boy who once begged for her affection, is soon to be Hokage and devoted to Hinata, the soon to be Hyuga clan head, the woman he truly loves. As the past and present collide, Sakura is forced to face the life she could have had-and the one she threw away.Complete
